- DDianevipVancouver / British Columbia •52 reviews4.0Dined 1 day agoMy friend had a bowl with chicken. She is gluten intolerant and specified this to the server. When the food arrived, delivered by someone else, the chicken looked like it had a crunchy bread coating. She asked the person if it was gluten free. She didn’t know. Finally the server cane back and said it was gluten free…. The server seemed fairly new (didn’t get her name) and wasn’t as comfortable on her role as most there. I had the salmon benny (my fave) and it was awesome as always!More infoBoom + BattenPrice: Expensive• Regional American (Northwest)• Victoria•4.6

Got the smoked salmon reuben based on other reviews (even though I was doubtful of the salmon and sauerkraut combo) and it was really good. My companion got the pastrami which was also really good.
